Fired Pie plans to double store count by fall

Arizona-based Fired Pie has announced plans to double its store count by the fall, going from four units to eight.

"We are responding to the demand of all the pizza lovers in the community," Co-Founder Fred Morgan said in a news release. “We are listening to our customers and opening up more locations.”

This week, the concept will open its fifth location off Greenway-Hayden Loop and Scottsdale Road in North Scottsdale, Ariz. A downtown location is set to open at the Collier Center off 2nd and Jefferson streets and another location will open in downtown Tucson, Ariz., on the corner of Congress & Broadway. The eighth location will open in Ahwatukee Foothills at the Towne Center complex off Ray Rd and I-10.

Fired Pie plans to open six more locations next year, the release said.
